Etymology and definitions[edit] The term harmony derives from the Greek ἁρμονία (harmonía), meaning "joint, agreement, concord",[4] from the verb ἁρμόζω (harmozo), "to fit together, to join".[5] The term was often used for the whole field of music, while "music" referred to the arts in general.
Counterpoint. General principles[edit] It is hard to write a beautiful song.

It is harder to write several individually beautiful songs that, when sung simultaneously, sound as a more beautiful polyphonic whole. The internal structures that create each of the voices separately must contribute to the emergent structure of the polyphony, which in turn must reinforce and comment on the structures of the individual voices.

Hermeto Pascoal. Hermeto Pascoal. Modes of limited transposition. Technical criteria[edit] Based on our present chromatic system, a tempered system of 12 sounds, these modes are formed of several symmetrical groups, the last note of each group always being common with the first of the following group.

At the end of a certain number of chromatic transpositions which varies with each mode, they are no longer transposable, giving exactly the same notes as the first.[1] There are two complementary ways to view the modes: considering their possible transpositions, and considering the different modes contained within them. Definition by chromatic transposition[edit]
Transcribing. Imagine that you’ve just stepped off a plane in a foreign country… You grab your suitcase and step onto the soil for the first time and suddenly you’re filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation.

What new sights, new sounds, unusual food, and interesting people await you in this strange new place? Your mind races with possibilities and you can barely wait to get out there and start exploring. But after a few days you begin to notice something odd… At each stop on your journey everyday conversation seems to elude you. The sound of laughter fills the air from jokes that you don’t understand, menus at restaurants don’t make any sense, and each interaction with the locals becomes a confusing struggle.
Altered Dominant Chord in Jazz Improvisation. Alterations are at the heart of jazz… In no other genre of music can you freely alter chords in a such a fluid and flexible manner.

As chords whiz by, the soloist has the freedom to add all sorts of chord alterations to their melodic lines. But it requires a sense of how these altered chord tones behave and a certain kind of know-how to use them effectively. The best place to start experimenting with alterations is over the dominant chord because that’s where you have the most options.
"Transitions" - Parvaaz live at Jagriti Theatre. The Science of Sample Rates (When Higher Is Better — And When It Isn’t)
Image courtesy of Flickr user mikecogh One of the most hotly—and perhaps unnecessarily—debated topics in the world of audio is the one that surrounds digital sample rates.

It seems an unlikely topic for polarization, but for more than 10 years, the same tired arguments have been batted about by each side with almost unrelenting intensity. At the fringes, advocates of either side have often dug deeper trenches of faith for themselves. But as much as that’s the case, there’s also a growing consensus among designers and users who have a firm understanding of digital audio. Namely, that there are perfectly good reasons for sticking with the current professional and consumer standards of 44.1 and 48 kHz for recording and playback – and some valid arguments for moving up to slightly higher sample rates, such as 60, 88.2 or even as high as 96 kHz.
